WARNING: The Sarastro’s lower module and its packaging are

tilting will require the assistance of a second person.
Attempting to do it alone could be hazardous, create injuries
or permanent damage to the loudspeaker.

four latches of the lower module flight case;
2. Lift each of the latch's handles then twist
counterclockwise 180 degrees and pull to release;

the elastic bands;

Teflon skates. Repeat for all the skates. Do not install the
spikes yet;

inside the case before storage;

indicated in step 8 to remove the Teflon skates and install
the spikes.
